I saw this on 2012:

and this:
https://www.facebook.com/northwind.data ... =3&theater

Since then, we've seen dozens of fake drives.
Usually people must be very careful with 'amazing offers'.

Last week I came across an ebay "offer", it was a 4TB USB pendrive, for $28. I tried to find it, but obviously ebay deleted it.

I have seen this crap many times before, but every time I see it I must laugh. :)
